The Simpsons Background Characters at Moe’s Tavern
Larry and Other Moe’s Tavern Regulars
Several other background characters hang out at Moe’s besides Larry, and they mostly haven’t had any spoken lines while at the establishment. Some of them have been reused a number of times, but they’re never as frequently seen as Larry was. While they’re a part of Homer Simpson’s backstory, he’s never given them the time of day. There’s actually a kiddie equivalent of the phenomena seen at Moe’s; there are over a dozen notable background characters who appear regularly to fill out scenes at Springfield Elementary who don’t even have official names.
The Unnamed Characters
While those students and barflies don’t have names yet, perhaps someday they will. In any event, there’s one barfly who does have an official name and has even had a couple of lines over the years — Sam, a green cap-wearing fellow who’s often seen with Larry. While he hasn’t ever carried any plot weight, maybe the show might center an episode around him — before it’s too late and he becomes another big unanswered question related to “The Simpsons.”
